  • Introduction

    The Argus, Melbourne. 21st December 1927. OLD PRINCE'S BRIDGE. To The Editor of the Argus. Sir, - In an article on "Old Prince's Bridge', on on Saturday the question was asked : "Who was Mappin?" Mappin is my grandfather, Tamillas Mappin, son of John Mappin, of Sheffield. My grandfather arrived in Sydney in September 1841, on the ship China. He was a surgical instrument maker in Sydney, and later he came to Melbourne. Besides having the contract for the ironwork of the first Prince's Bridge, he also had the contract for the ironwork of Gellibrand lighthouse, and I believe the first part of the Melbourne Grammar School. He carried on his surgical instrument making as well. My father the eldest son, was born in Sydney in September 1841, and is still living. Yours TAMILLAS R. MAPPIN. St. Columba's Vicarage, Edithvale.
